Default I need some motivation

Hey all, I need some motivation and maybe an atta girl about my diet. I've posted before that I had lost 50 lbs in the last year, but I have stalled really bad for the last few months. SO bad that I am working on not gaining more than losing.

I went to the doctor on Thursday for my 6 month thyroid/diabetes test and was terrified of what they were going to say, since it has been such a struggle. I got the results today and they were better than I had thought they would be.

First of all, I haven't gained any weight. I haven't lost any either, but not gaining made me happy because honestly, changing my habits and keeping weight off is as hard as losing it.

My thyroid numbers are still good, so that is a relief. I haven't had a full scan in almost 16 years now because of my radiation levels, so the blood test and chest x-rays are my cancer check up. If they are good, then I should be good, which means I don't have to think or worry about it for 6 more months.

My A1C was the lowest it has ever been, 5.0, which is great news. I am very happy about that because getting off the diabetes meds is why I am trying to lose weight. They did not take me off of my current dosage, but they have lowered it in the past, so the A1C being lower means I am going in the right direction.

The problem is the motivation. I don't have any right now. Any advice from anyone who has been on a diet, or attempting to change their relationship with food, who stalled, lost their mojo and then got back on track? I need some words of wisdom to help motivate me.
